Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: The problem is that queues and other synchronization objects can end up in an inconsistent state when a worker crashes, hangs or gets killed. That's why, in concurrent.futures, a crashed worker makes the ProcessPoolExecutor become "broken". A similar thing should be done for multiprocessing.Pool but it's a more complex object.
